CHICKEN Inn are scheduled to leave Bulawayo for Zvishavane today ahead of their Week Three tricky tie against former Castle Lager Premier Soccer League champions FC Platinum set for Mandava Stadium tomorrow.
Pure Platinum Play are yet to lose a match and Gamecocks have managed to post a win and a draw after having edged CAPS United 1-0 before they went to play a goalless draw against newboys Arenel Movers.
“That one is anyone’s game. We respect FC Platinum, and we are expecting to see them come at us. All I can say we are ready for the game, and we will be hard pressed to get a positive result,” said Gamecocks head coach Joey Antipas.
FC Platinum boasts of two ex-Chicken Inn players in their camp.
They have Shephered Mhlanga and Lawrence Mhlanga, a combative duo that can always make like difficult for Gamecocks attacking players.
It remains to be seen if Warriors coach Norman Mapeza will arrive in Zvishavane from Malawi on time for the game.
Chances are also between slim and none that Warriors goalkeeper Donovan Bernard will be able to make it on time and guard the goals for Chicken Inn.
Meanwhile, in other fixtures scheduled for tomorrow, CAPS United will meet Bikita Minerals at Rufaro Stadium while Arenel Movers play-host to Herentals College at Luveve Stadium.
ZPC Kariba meet Ngezi Platinum Stars at Nyamhunga. Greenfuel entertain TelOne at Greenfuel Arena. Manica Diamonds will seek to utilise home advantage when they do duty against Chegutu Pirates at Mutare’s Sakubva Stadium
